Buy Boxing Gloves in Singapore Online

Dec 23rd 2015 at 3:11 AM

Boxing gloves are essential for boxing or MMA training, sparring, and competing. The easiest way to look for boxing gloves is to go online and find a store that specialises in fitness equipment in Singapore. Make sure that the store is a known retailer and supplier of high-quality fitness equipment in the country. From there, you can start shopping for boxing gloves and compare products until you find the right pair at the right price.

The type of boxing gloves you use should depend on the type of activity you do. Ideally, you should have a unique set of gloves dedicated for sparring, hitting bags, and training. If you are a competitive fighter or boxer, then you will need another pair specifically for fighting. The type and size of the boxing gloves should depend on your purpose and body weight. All-purpose boxing gloves are ideal for training. They are also referred to as 'sparring gloves' and you can use them for both sparring and hitting bags. Sparring gloves are training gloves with extra padding, so you do not have to hurt your sparring partner.

Investing in the right type of boxing gloves will protect your hands and enable you to box properly. Look for boxing gloves that are proven to have a functional and durable construction. For training or sparring, consider a pair of gloves made of PU material. Here is a breakdown of the size and body-weight guidelines for choosing boxing training gloves:

12 oz or 14 oz – 120 lbs and below

14 oz to 16 oz – 120 lbs to 150 lbs

16 oz to 20 oz – 150 lbs to 180 lbs

18 oz and above – 180 lbs and above

Brands matter when buying boxing gloves online. For instance, some brands produce boxing gloves that provide more protection for the wrists, while others design the gloves to keep your fists safe. A 14oz glove from a reputable brand or manufacturer should provide superior protection and padding than a 16oz glove from a generic name.

It is essential for boxing gloves to fit your hands properly. The right way to fit boxing gloves is with your handwraps on. Make sure the glove feels snug. Since you are buying boxing gloves online, be sure that the retailer or supplier has a good return and exchange policy, so you do not have to worry in case you purchased the wrong size.
